Over time, I have had requests about the possibility of mirroring
this mailing list with an internet/usenet newsgroup. This is mainly
a convenience to have the option of keeping
personal email messages separate from list messages.
With the present number of participants on the mailing list there
should be no problem about creating an internet newsgroup.
I have stated in the past I would try to get this done but other
things have pushed it down the priority list. If there are no
objections, I will try to start this when I get back from the US
in late April. Please feel free to send any comments on this to
me via email. It would take around two months to get an
internet/Usenet newsgroup going - most likely under the name of
sci.techniques.xtallography.reitveld.

This mailing list processor supports both the Internet (listname)-request
interface and an emulation of BITNET LISTSERV (MXSERVER), providing a subset of
LISTSERV functions.
The following commands can be handled automatically through the -Request
interface:
SUBSCRIBE - to subscribe to a mailing list
SIGNOFF - to remove yourself from a mailing list
REVIEW - to get a list of subscribers
QUERY - to get the status of your entry on the list
SET NOMAIL - to remain on the list but not receive mail
SET MAIL - to reverse the NOMAIL setting
SET CONCEAL - to conceal yourself from REVIEW listings
SET NOCONCEAL - to reverse the CONCEAL setting
SET NOREPRO - to prevent the list from sending you your own postings SET REPRO - to reverse the NOREPRO setting
LIST - to get a list of mailing lists available on this host
HELP - to receive a help file
QUIT - to terminate processing (skipping signature, etc.)
The syntax of these commands for use with the LISTSERV emulator (MXSERVER) is:
SUBSCRIBE {list-name}
SIGNOFF {list-name}
REVIEW {list-name}
QUERY {list-name}
SET {list-name} [NO]MAIL
SET {list-name} [NO]CONCEAL
SET {list-name} [NO]REPRO
LIST
HELP
QUIT
You must send your commands in the body of a mail message. BITNET immediate
messages are not supported. Subject lines in mail messages are ignored.
